Haven't heard of Juarez, not that it means much. I seemed to keep hearing the same four names from most people I've asked. Felix, Swartz, Boone, & Higa all seem highly reccomended in Fresno.

My Doctor is Dr Ben Shadle of Sacramento BMI. He is fantastic. He is very caring and has a great beside manner. I had zero complications from the surgery. His entire staff exhibits the same caring and supportive attitude. I was in the hospital 24 hrs after surgery. During that time all the key members of his staff visited me in the hospital. I strongly recommend him.

Here is a news article on Dr Shadle:

Benjamin Shadle, M.D., FACS, has been appointed Medical Director for Bariatric Services at Sutter Roseville Medical Center.

As a bariatric surgeon, Dr. Shadle’s professional interests and areas of research include advanced laparoscopy/bariatric surgery with a special interest in the treatment of diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hypertension and obstructive sleep apnea.

Dr. Shadle received his medical degree from Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, and holds a Bachelor of Science degree from Brigham Young University, Provo, UT. He completed his residency at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital, Santa Barbara, CA, and is fellowship trained in Minimally Invasive/Bariatric Surgery from the University of California, San Francisco-Fresno, in Fresno, CA. In addition he is board-certified by the American Board of Surgery and is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons.

As medical director for bariatric services, Dr. Shadle will lead the bariatric care team at Sutter Roseville Medical Center in continuing to develop and implement practices to ensure surgical excellence, outstanding outcomes and compassionate patient care. Dr. Shadle also will actively emphasize patient and physician education about the disease of obesity in the community.
